McAllister condemns Dunfermline

Dunfermline's cruel defeat at Inverness Caledonian Thistle confirmed they will play first-division football next season. A mistake by goalkeeper Dorus De Vries and a deflected last-minute winner allowed Caley to steal a 2-1 victory at the Caledonian Stadium. The Pars started the game well and took the lead. Gary Mason's cross into the box was flicked on by Tam McManus for Jim McIntyre to volley the ball past Michael Fraser. They held the lead until 13 minutes from the end, when De Vries' let a Richard Hastings free-kick slip through his hands, allowing the Highlanders to equalise. Rory McAllister sealed the Fifers' fate with a deflected free-kick.

Two goals from substitute John Sutton in a fantastic second-half comeback by St Mirren at Fir Park secured SPL football next season. Two first-half goals from Ross McCormack put Motherwell into a 2-0 lead at the interval. The Paisley side fought back with a goal from Sutton in the 56th minute before a curling shot from Billy Mehmet brought them level. Sutton then struck a left-foot shot past Colin Meldrum to seal the victory 3-2.

Goals from Michal Pospisil and Andy Driver gave Hearts a 2-0 win in the Edinburgh derby and keeps alive their chase for Uefa Cup football. The Tynecastle club must win their final game of the season next Sunday, away to Kilmarnock, and hope Rangers beat Aberdeen. The home side opened the scoring inside the first minute, when Hibs' central defence failed to deal with a long ball upfield and Pospisil slotted the ball past Andrew McNeil. Driver doubled the lead after 23 minutes, when McNeil dropped the ball at his feet and the young midfielder placed the ball into an empty net.

Russell Latapy scored the opening goal for Falkirk in their 2-0 win at home to Dundee United. Alan Gow added the second goal in the 51st minute. Lee Wilkie was sent off in the second half.
